My kids both have 18” bikes and the chains on both are currently loose. Am I not tightening the bolts tight enough? On their race bikes I use a tensioner but these dropouts are too short to use any I have on hand. Is there another style I need? I could possibly be starting the chain slightly too loose also, but they have definitely moved forward.
